    This isn’t new. Every job posting is always in a superposition of being real or not real until someone actually gets hired. Job postings are used as bait to get cheaper talent, as an implicit threat to existing employees that they might be replaced, as a way to gain negotiating leverage with internal candidates, etc. There are no rules about job postings, you can literally post any job with any salary and any requirements, of course they’re going to be abused by any number of bad actors.

    @darkdemize@sh.itjust.works, @InternetUser2012@midwest.social, @InternetUser2012@lemmy.today, you’re gonna catch a ban for spamming if you stalk someone to downvote them.
